HOLDER FOR PHOTOGRAPHIC FILM STRIPS

Description

[0001] This invention relates to holders for photographic film and prints and, more particularly, to improved transparent holders for strips of photographic negatives, microfiche film and the like, wherein the photographic articles can be readily inserted for storage, viewing and/or transporting, and will be restrained from being inadvertently dislodged from the holders.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] From US-A-3 651 591 is known a photograph album page made of precut sheets of transparent plastic films, one overlying the other. The transparent plastic films are attached to opposite sides of a backing sheet by spaced bonding lines between each sheet of film and said backing sheet. The bonding lines are formed to define at least one rectangular retaining pocket for a photographic item of generally similar dimensions, said retaining pocket having two opposite closed ends and an extended openable end between said closed ends for insertion of a photographic item into said pocket. The openable end is provided by a cut away portion of one of said sheets of film. The sheets of film defining said openable end are attached together for a short distance from at least one of said opposing closed ends of said pocket.

[0003] US-A-2 154 510 discloses a negative holder comprising a sheet of transparent material folded along two spaced parallel lines to have a front and two rear portions in adjacent parallel relation to the front. Securing means are provided for maintaining the front and the two rear portions in their proper relation and for dividing the interior of the folded sheet into a multiplicity of compartments for receiving the photographic negatives, said compartments being enclosed by said folding lines and by securing lines equally spaced and parallel with said folding lines. The compartments are closed at opposite ends along said folding lines and securing lines and have at least one open end for the reception of the negatives.

[0004] Transparent jackets for strips and individual photographic negatives, film, prints, slides and the like, such as disclosed in U.S. Patent Nos. 3,546,053, and 3,866,648, are in wide use in industry and for a variety of commercial and consumer applications. Such jackets are generally formed of a pair of transparent plastic films which have a plurality of spaced apart parallel and/or perpendicular bonding lines between the pair of films to form film pockets therein of suitable dimension for insertion of the photographic materials.

[0005] Such jackets are stored in files or books and carry the photographic negatives, film or prints for scanning or copying and enlarging by photographic or other processes. The pockets of the jackets may be loaded from time to time with strips or individual frames of film, prints, slides or the like and then stored until they are later required.

[0006] Various versions of jackets are available which are commonly of a size that can be fitted as pages into books, such as ring binders or hang in file drawers. One such type is characterized as including a series of parallel pockets, which can extend along the short or long dimensions of said pages. Such pockets may include a long lateral opening across the top ("top-loading"), or a small cross-cut at one or both ends, wherein strips of predetermined lengths can be loaded into the pockets from the top, or by inserting and sliding in from either end.

[0007] While "top-loading" pockets makes possible the ready insertion or removal of film strips with less likelihood of damaging them as compared to inserting an end thereof and then loading by sliding, the easy accessability of the strips makes them more susceptible to being inadvertently dislodged when, for example, the pages filed in a book are removed, or when the books are moved or used. It has been surprisingly found that if the length of the lateral opening across a top edge of the "top loading" pocket can be shortened somewhat, the inadvertent dislodging of a photographic film strip or an individual frame thereof from the pocket can be substantially eliminated without significantly reducing the ease of insertion or removal thereof. This can be achieved by bonding the edges of the pair of transparent films forming the holder or jacket for a short distance at one or both ends of the opening along the open end of the pocket.

DISCLOSURE OF INVENTION

[0008] In accordance with the present invention, there is provided a transparent jacket or holder for photographic items such as photographic films, negatives, and prints comprising a pair of transparent plastic films, one overlying the other, said films being attached to one another by spaced bonding lines between said film to define at least one generally rectangular retaining pocket, said retaining pocket having two opposite closed ends and an openable end intermediate said opposite closed ends for insertion of a photographic item into said pocket; said openable end being provided by an edge of at least one of said plies of film being unattached and with the plies of film defining said openable end being bonded together for a short distance extending from one or both opposing closed ends of said pocket to form a restraining lip at said openable end whereby inadvertent dislodging of a photographic item from within the pocket will be prevented, said closed end of the pocket opposite the openable end comprising a slit opening or openings extending for a short distance from one br both ends of the opposite closed ends of the pocket.

[0009] It has been found that the transparent holder or jacket articles of the present invention having a "top-loading" pocket by virtue of the openable end of the pocket extending along the top or a major length of the pocket, surprisingly and unexpectedly provides for the ready insertion and removal advantages of the conventional "top-loading" film holder while reducing or substantially eliminating the possibility of a strip of photographic film being inadvertently dislodged from within the pocket during storage, use, and/or handling of the film holder. The "top-loading" film holder of the invention can contain one, or a plurality of pockets for holding of film strips, or individual frames, including slides and/or prints, and is suitable for storing in ring-binder books, hanging files and the like. The slit opening or openings in the closed end of the pocket opposite the openable end which are, generally, in alignment with a restraining lip in the openable end, facilitates manipulation of a long length of a photographic film strip or of certain single frame photographic items inserted into the pocket during loading and removal thereof.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

[0011] Referring now to the drawings, wherein like reference numerals denote like parts, there is shown in FIGURE 1 a holder for photographic film 10 constructed in accordance with the present invention, which is formed from two layers, plies or sheets 11A, 11 B of transparent plastic film. Any tough, transparent plastic film, such as polyethylene, polyvinylchloride, polyester, triacetate and, preferably, polypropylene, would be suitable for use in preparing such holders. The sheets or plies of plastic film are bonded or sealed together along a series of parallel spaced sealing lines 12 and perpendicular spaced sealing lines 13 to define rectangular receiving or retaining pockets 14 between the sealing lines 12,13. The pockets, in general, have a dimension somewhat greater than the height and length of a photographic film strip which is designed to be inserted into the pockets.

[0012] An open end or slit 16 where the plies of film 11 A and 11 B are unattached to each other extends across the top of each of said pockets 14 for substantially the entire length thereof, so that a strip of photographic film may be readily inserted into the pocket 14. A narrow portion of each end of the top edge of each of said pockets is bonded or sealed for a short distance, by sealing line 18A and 18B, extending inwardly from side sealing lines 13, so that the slits or openings 16 are somewhat shorter in length, than the length of the pockets 14. Such bonding lines 18A and 18B provide restraining lips extending inwardly from the oppositely formed closed ends 13 of said pockets 14. Slits or slot opening 20A and 20B are formed in the generally closed bottom end 12 of the pockets 14 opposite the open end 16, these slits 20A and 20B being in general vertical alignment with bonding lines 18A and 18B.

[0013] Restraining lips formed by sealing lines 18A and 18B in the open ends 16 of the pockets 14, may extend inwardly from one or the other of the closed ends 13 or preferably, for at least a short length from each of the closed ends 13 of the pocket 14. The length of each of the restraining lips 18A and 18B, can be the same or different and will in general, range in size depending on the size of the film item to be retained in the pocket. As indicated, the length thereof can be quite short, e.g. 3 mm, but will usually be somewhat longer. Preferably, at least about a 5 mm long restraining lip will be formed at each of the ends of the pocket and the combined length of the restraining lips 18A and 18B will generally be sufficient to reduce the length of the opening 16 in the top of the pocket 14from about the length of a photographic item such as a film strip to about 90% of the length of a film strip to be inserted therein.

[0014] The sealing lines 12, 13 and 18A and 18B are preferably formed by heat, RF ultra sound or the like sealing so that the two films 11A and 11 B are fused together at their point of contact with sufficient strength to define the retaining pockets 14. Other means of forming the bonding lines, such as gluing the films together, may also be employed in preparing the holders of the invention.

[0015] The holder for photographic film 10 is of a size that can be fitted into a book, such as a ring binder, or suspension file for storage, carrying and/or use. To accommodate such use, a reinforcement strip 24 of paper, plastic or the like may be bonded across the top edge of the holder for the punch holes 26, which enable insertion in a ring binder and/or a slot for insertion of a support bar for hanging files.

[0016] Referring now to Figure 2, there is shown a modification or alternate construction of the holder of the invention which consists of the sheets of plastic 11A, 11 B being bonded to form a holder 10 having a retaining pocket 14, defined by the bottom sealing line 12, the side sealing lines 13, and the restraining lip seal lines 18A and 18B which reduce somewhat the length of the open top end 16 of the pocket 14. The slits 20A and 20B . in the bottom sealing line 12, are preferably, in general alignment with the ends of restraining lip seal lines 18A and 18B.

[0017] In Figure 6 is shown a further possible modification or alternate construction of a holder 10 having a plurality of parallel retaining pockets 14 for strips of photographic film. The pockets are defined by a series of parallel closed bottom ends 12 and perpendicular end sealing lines 13. The closed bottom ends 12 of said pockets may be formed by folding a sheet of plastic film so that one ply thereof overlies the other or by heat sealing two separate sheets of plastic film. An open end or slot 16 for each of the pockets 14 is provided intermediate the bottom closed ends 12 for each of the pockets. Restraining lips seal lines 18A and 18B are formed in each end of the slot or open end 16 of the pockets 14. The embodiment shown also has a reinforcement strip 24 across the top end of the holder 10 and punch holes 26 for mounting the holder 10 in a ring binder.

[0018] In actual use, a simple procedure serves to insert a strip of photographic film in a holder of the invention, and provide for the ready removal thereof when desired. As shown in Figures 3, 4 and 5, a strip of film 30 is inserted at an angle into the pocket 14 of a holder 10 through openable end 16. The corner 32 of film strip 30 is inserted into a slot 20A in the bottom seal line 12, thus providing sufficient space in the openable end 16 for insertion of film strip 30 past restraining lip 18B, as shown in Figure 4. Film strip 30 should then be slid to the left (Figure 5) so that the end of the film strip 30 within the pocket 14 is locked in by restraining lip 18B as well as by restraining lip 18A. Thus, restraining lips 18A and 18B prevent dislodging of the film strip 30 from within pocket 14 during the storage, use, or moving thereof.

[0019] While the present invention has been particularly described in terms of specific embodiments thereof, it will be understood in view of the instant disclosure, that numerous variations upon the invention are now enabled to those skilled in the art, which variation yet resides in the scope of the present teaching. Accordingly, the invention is to be broadly construed, and limited only by the scope of the claims now appended hereto.
